After a two-and-a-half month hiatus, Indian and Chinese forces launched a ninth round of corps commander-level talks in which the two sides discussed ways to reduce military clashes along the eastern Ladakh border ۔
The ninth round of talks was held at the Moldo border point on the Chinese border in the Line of Actual Control. The agreement was reached on September 10 last year between Indian Foreign Minister SJ Shankar and his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi. They will stay away from any step that could lead to a clash and re-emergence of the conflict, and the rules and protocols of border management will be fully respected.
